@Raikonos: YAY! FANTASTIC! One minor gripe: I think the last transition isn't as clear as it could be (ie, the parallels between the kids and their previous incarnations aren't quite as strong as they should be) but still. SO. COOOOOOOL.
@Raikonos: YAY! FANTASTIC! One minor gripe: I think the last transition isn't as clear as it could be (ie, the parallels between the kids and their previous incarnations aren't quite as strong as they should be) but still. SO. COOOOOOOL.
So I was taking the AP English Literature test the other day, and while working through the multiple choice section, I came across an interesting piece of writing. I immediately recognized it as having been plagiarized from an old book of Alternian poetry I once read and quickly took note of the title and author so I could look it up when I returned home. While I was unable to locate the book I found the original poem in, I luckily managed to remember most of it. I have restored it to its former glory here for your reading pleasure.
A Blessing
by /James Wright/ Equius Zahhak
Just off the Highway to /Rochester, Minnesota/ Hiveblock 7492
Twilight bounds softly forth on the grass.
And the eyes of those two /Indian ponies/ Alternian musclebeasts
Darken with kindness.
They have come gladly out of the willows
To welcome my /friend/ moirall and me.
We step over the barbed wire into the pasture
Where they have been grazing all day, alone.
They ripple /tensely/ STRONGLY, they can hardly contain their happiness
That we have come.
They bow shyly as wet /swans/ winged waterbeasts. They /love/ are in flushed romance with each other.
There is no loneliness like theirs.
At /home/ hive once more,
They begin munching the young tufts of spring in the darkness.
I would like to hold the slenderer one in my STRONG arms,
For she has walked over to me
And nuzzled my left hand.
She is black and white,
Her mane falls wild on her forehead,
And the light breeze moves me to caress her long ear
That is delicate as the skin over a /girl's/ female troll's wrist.
Suddenly I realize
That if I stepped out of my body I would break
Into /blossom/ an e%tremely intense sweat.
I did that whole succession of pesterlogs at the beginning to establish that /// means the Scratch, and I had Saiivux's line in the middle to smooth the transition, but looking back on it it does kind of happen pretty quickly. Maybe I should have focused on the trolls as well?
@ArmsAreLoud: I am tripping over all the missing close quotes in this, c'mon! You can clearly format better than this.
@PingZing: Thought it was funny how Tarfus was internally lecturing Lucida about turning her back considering how things turned out.

Actually SR, I always have a problem with formatting
Formatting is the enemy
I'll go back and see if I can fix everything now.
Well, I figured based on your sentence structure and the like, and you were consistent with quirks, and there was never a point where I wasn't able to follow Karkat's narrative, so I'd say you did format well! Except the quote marks. They were just missing. I'm sure you can clear them up from there!

Anything that touches the BBCode is what I have a problem with. The BBCode makes me think "OK yeah sentence over" and I forget the quote marks.

I'm working on stuff but until I get something done here's a quick Pokemon thing. Because I named all my Pokemon in White after HS characters (except for Kamina, but he's still Bro in my heart), and this occurrence was just too funny to pass up.

Re: Champion - Chapter 5: Survivor
remember that story i did one time that was about rebels and karkat was in it.
i redid it and this is the first chapter.
Blood Runs Deep
Act I: Uprising
Chapter 1: Riots in the Street
It's both rebellion and conformity that attack you with success.
-Amy Tan
I approve of Karkat-Ancestor fics. More would be excellent.
Hey, you know that crossover thing that I really should be twice as far into writing as I actually am?
Yeah, still doing that.
New chapter up. It's embarrassingly short, but it's up.
Chapter 13. You might as well read it. It'll take about 2 minutes of your time to do so, and Pickle Inspector is in it, which is always a plus.
I am on a quest to sell someone on fanfic. I have already given him a few req's, but I require... moar.
- Not pairing-centric in any way, shape, or form. Keep it gen.
- Excellent writing style = a must. The prose has to *sing*
- No crossovers yet (I'll save that for later?)
- Bonus points for either 1. HUMOR or 2. Really interesting explorations of character/canon concepts. Also 3. Dualscar / other ancestor shenanigans (No Karkancestor plz, there's 9 billion fics of him)
@ lucidSeraph: It is ridiculously hard to think of really good stories that are not shippy or a crossover. Maybe some of Sionnan's Strider fics? Those are the only things that come to mind off the top of my head. Unfortunately, I don't read that many ancestor fics, so I dunno of anything there. Oh, and RedPen's Unhinged! That was really good as well, and not particularly shippy. Um. That's really all I can think of.
EDIT: And omg guys where are all these amazing HS/Harry Potter crossovers coming from on AO3, what I don't even.

Man, I have all these IDEAS and PLOTS swimming in my head stemming from the whole "highbloods have longer lifespans" reveal. But, exams. I should have something up in a few days.
(this is sadly irrelevant to lucidSeraph's request for recs because a. the stories I have in mind all have to do with the implications of lifespan discrepancies on trollmance, and b. I'm a terrible writer with a hideous case of Purple Prose. That said, I am in support of things along those lines getting written/discovered, and I'll keep an eye out.)

anonymousComrade: Wh00, epic wartime heroics =3. Also, end it how you want, and if you have to slap an AU tag on it I don't care, it will be cool. XD
PingZing: I can't wait for Karkatcestor and Solluxcestor frenemy interaction. =D
->Place insanely rambly sig under spoiler tag for the sanity of all involved
@lucidSeraph: a_mere_trifle's 'Inheritance' (Link) immediately springs to mind, as does liquidCitrus' 'four titles' (Link). I really wanna rec Red Pen's 'And We're Alive' (Link), but it's tagged Jade/Dave... I also want to rec SushiDatabase's 'Shenanigans' (Link), which is a nice exploration of the doomed timeline that spawned Davepsrite and dream!Rose, but it's been so long since I've read it that I can't be 100% certain it's a) non-shippy and b) up to your friend's standards.
Well, now that I've done that, I can feel slightly less guilty *coughblatantliescough* about using my first post for requests...
Soldiering on, there's a few plot bunnies that have been hopping around my head that I want to pawn off onto you poor saps because I'm a terrible writer and they won't leave me alone. Chances are someone's already written something along the same lines and I just can't find it, so if anyone is able to point me to a fic that will take any of the following bunnies and wrangle their necks for all they're worth, I'd be very much obliged.
Ok, I just know someone, somewhere has already done this, but...
Aaaaand musings on what might happen Post-Sburb if the world gets reset but the kids retain their powers and doomed timelines and such are still in effect.
Will the Real Alpha Dave Please Stand Up.(Yes I realize the legal system doesn't work like that.)
So yeah, if anyone can take these pesky bunnies off my hands I will shower them in net cookies and praise. Or I may simply tacklehug them at terminal velocity, whichever seems appropriate at the time.

Released: Aug 01st, 2003
Running Time: 74
Director: Rod Fontana
Company: Sticky Video
Dick Nasty, Veronika (I), Michele Raven, Rod Fontana, Katrina Rosebud, Liza Harper
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: Specialty
Foot filler and Michele Raven fanatics.
Blurry and bad camerawork combined with poor lighting mars this video's ability to showcase the feet here. Too bad as some of the feet pretty nicely pedicured and attached to some fine-looking broads.
Katrina Rosebud has nice peds and a fine ass from what can be seen in the Valley motel room her scene was shot in. Michelle Raven is the star here and does a scene in an office with director Rod Fontana and Dick Nasty. There's some nice footage of Fontana fucking her pussy with her feet crossed in frame while she blows Nasty. Raven knows what she is doing and keeps her feet active in the scene at all times and it's her normal, great, enthusiastic work. Still, both guys cum on her feet - a great thing except that the poor camerawork makes it so that the cum is invisible. Bummer.

West Antarctica and adjacent seafloor have topographic elevations 0.5–1.2 km greater than expected from models of lithospheric age and crustal structure. Ocean crust near New Zealand has no equivalent depth anomaly, but tectonic subsidence histories from Campbell Plateau petroleum wells show anomalously high subsidence rates during the Paleogene, and total subsidence 0.5–0.9 km greater than expected from rift basin models. Geophysical and geochemical anomalies suggest that upward mantle flow supports the anomalous topography beneath Antarctica, and the Campbell Plateau subsidence history indicates that topographic support mechanisms were long lived (>80 Ma) and recoverable over a period of ~30 m.y. as plate motions moved New Zealand from Antarctica. We construct models of Late Cretaceous and Cenozoic mantle flow with a slab graveyard and upwelling above that is initially rooted at 1000–1500 km depth. Our models match topography and subsidence history anomalies, and are consistent with mantle seismic wave speed anomalies and the geoid. We suggest that when thermally driven slab downwelling ceased ca. 100 Ma, low-density material that was fertilized within a broad zone in the lower mantle during the previous ~400 m.y. of Gondwana subduction was released and able to rise. Mantle upwelling from depths of 700–1500 km, lasting for periods of ~100–200 m.y., with enriched chemistry related to the prior subduction history may be a general process that follows subduction death, and has not previously been recognized.

27 Sharpshooters March (Reprise) recorded on Guido Deiros own 1924 Guerrini accordion.Released November 2003.
Count Guido Deiro (1886-1950), Italian-American composer and accordion virtuoso, was a major force in the popularization of the accordion in the early 20th century. A vaudeville star by 1910, he was the first piano accordionist to make sound recordings and solo radio broadcasts. For many years Deiro was a headline attraction at the great vaudeville houses throughout America and abroad, and made more than 100 recordings for the Columbia record company.
Concert accordionist Henry Doktorski has recorded all of Deiro's music -- 47 new recordings including waltzes, rags, marches, polkas, and Deiro favorites: My Florence Waltz, Egypto Fantasia, Sharpshooter's March, and the Broadway hit, Kismet. Doktorski's dashing and sparkling performances of Deiro's music quickly confirm the reason for Deiro's immense popularity.
In 1913, Deiro met Mae West, the young vaudeville performer and burgeoning sex symbol. A passionate romance ensued and the couple married secretly. Henry Doktorski's liner notes candidly detail their relationship, and photographs and newspaper clippings from Deiro's own scrapbooks are included in this two-CD set, consisting of 2 hours and 25 minutes of music.
Guido Deiro's delightful compositions are a window onto an era long past -- an artist delighting audiences with soaring melodies, instrumental virtuosity, and abundant high spirits. This anthology will be exuberantly received not only by accordion aficionados, but also by audiophiles in mainstream music circles, much like the rediscovery of Scott Joplin's music, twenty-five years ago.

Rev. Msgr. John A. Radano, Ph.D.
Adjunct Professor of Systematic Theology
School of Theology
Monsignor Radano has participated extensively in ecumenical activities at the international, national, and local levels.
Monsignor John A. Radano was ordained a priest of the Archdiocese of Newark in 1965. Appointed to the faculty of Seton Hall University, he served in the Department of Religious Studies from 1965-1984, also as its chairman from 1977-1984, specializing in ecumenical studies.During these years as a faculty member at the University, his many ecumenical activities included participation in the North American Academy of Ecumenists, with three years (1981-83) as Membership Secretary/ Treasurer, and co-director of an Ecumenical Studies Institute co-sponsored by Seton Hall University and Upsala College, which organized ecumenical lecture programs at both institutions (1973-1975). In addition, he participated in two international assemblies of the World Conference on Religion and Peace (Princeton, New Jersey, 1979, and Nairobi, Kenya, 1984), with the responsibility of organizing prayer sessions at those assemblies. He also served as member of the Pax Romana (a Catholic NGO) delegation at the United Nations (1975-79), and head of the delegation (1977-79). He attended, in an NGO capacity, the first UNO world conferences on Population (1974, Bucharest, Romania), and on Human Settlements (1976, Canada).From 1984-2008, he served in the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity(PCPCU), Vatican City, and in 1985, Pope John Paul II appointed him as head of that Pontifical Council's Western Section. He participated there in a number of the Catholic Church's international bilateral dialogues with other world Christian communions, including those with Lutherans, Reformed, Baptists, Mennonites, Classical Pentecostals and Evangelicals. In 1985, the PCPCU named him liaison with the Commission on Faith and Order of the World Council of Churches, and member, in 1988, of the Joint Working Group between the Catholic Church and the World Council of Churches.
Publications include:Monsignor Radano is the Editor of the PCPCU's Information Service (1985-2008).

how can i get the same layout settings (sidebar widgets & slideshows) on my translated pages?
i cannot see the translated pages in the dropdown box when i want to add a sidebar in the theme settings?
June 27, 2013 at 11:28 am #126969Hi,
Did you create the pages or duplicated it on the current language? If you have English and Spanish language for example, you need to create the pages for each language.
June 27, 2013 at 11:59 am #126970i suppose you mean create the translations?
June 27, 2013 at 1:10 pm #126971i checked multiple posts about WPML?
June 27, 2013 at 1:25 pm #126972As soon as WPML is activated the theme will use separate options and templates for each language. The advantage is that you've full control over all options (you can use different portfolio pages for each language, you can use a different logo, you can set different widget areas, etc.) but the drawback is that you need to configure everything for each language. Use the language selector on the admin screen to switch from one language to another. You'll notice that the "Angular" menu item (admin page) changes the name based on the current language (eg to Angular (EN) or Angular (DE), etc.). Select a language and go to Angular (XX) > Theme Options and configure all options for the language XX. Then switch to YY and go to Angular (YY) > Theme Options to configure the options for YY. Repeat this process for each language. Then you can start to create your custom template for language XX. Go to Angular (XX) > Template Builder and create your template(s) for XX. Then save the template, switch to language YY and create your template(s) for language YY, etc.
If you can't find certain pages in the dropdown you probably forgot to create a translated version of these pages.
June 27, 2013 at 1:58 pm #126973OK I understand – but in my case the "Angular" menu item (admin page) did not change the name based on the current language (eg to Angular (EN)
June 28, 2013 at 2:36 am #126974Hi,
Please download the latest Angular version.
You should have something like this
June 28, 2013 at 7:54 am #126975hi Ismael,
I work with v 1.1.1 so this might explain the issue i had.
where can i download this new version?
June 28, 2013 at 11:38 am #126976hi Ismael,
i downloaded the thema from ThemeForest but i get this error when trying to install it:
June 29, 2013 at 7:04 am #126977Two solutions:
1) Unzip the zip file you downloaded from themeforest.ner and in the uncompressed folder you'll find another zip file called angular.zip – you must upload/select this file and install it with the wordpress uploader
2) Or go to themeforest.net and download the "installable files". Then select this installable file and install it with the wordpress uploader.
June 29, 2013 at 2:19 pm #126978Hi, this is not working either – see screenshot: http://www.clipular.com/c?9102018=6FGZ7Wlem0ZRPWUi4NjF2OP-t8A&f=.png
June 30, 2013 at 6:42 am #126979Hi,
You should probably upload the new theme files via FTP or your cpanel. Please watch this video, this is Enfold theme but basically the same process.

News highlights
CDC issues guidelines to fight flu pandemic
The CDC issued guidelines last week on how communities can fight the spread of pandemic flu, including a severity index that recommends increasingly stronger measures.
Modeled after the index used for hurricanes, the Pandemic Severity Index (PSI) ranks severity from categories 1 (moderate) to 5 (extreme), with severity primarily determined by the percentage of infected people who die. A category 1, which would kill less than 0.1% of the ill or fewer than 90,000 Americans, is equivalent to a severe seasonal influenza season. A pandemic with the intensity of the 1918 flu pandemic would be a category 5, with the potential to kill at least 1.8 million, or at least 2% of those infected.
Actions the CDC recommends to limit the spread of the disease range, according to severity levels, from asking ill, contagious persons to remain at home to closing schools and child care programs, telecommuting and avoiding public gatherings. Cities and states would decide when to invoke measures like closing schools and postponing concerts, the Feb. 1 Washington Post said.
The CDC, which also kicked off a series of radio and television public service announcements last week on pandemic preparedness, said it will refine its pandemic flu guidelines as needed based on research, exercises and experience.
The CDC guide is available online.
The Washington Post is online.
FDA strengthens drug review process
The FDA last week outlined a series of changes intended to improve the safety of drugs and other medical products. The report responds to criticisms presented in the Institute of Medicine's September 2006 review of the agency.
Some but not all of the IOM's recommendations are included in the FDA's new plan, noted the Jan. 31 New York Times. Major proposed changes include:
- a pilot program to assess drug safety 18 months after introduction
- a new advisory panel on risk communications
- collaboration with the Veteran's Health Administration to track newly approved products
- a database of genetic codes associated with negative drug outcomes
- screening tests to identify patients most at risk for drug problems
The proposed changes reflect an effort to strengthen the science that supports the medical product safety system and improve communication and information flow among all key stakeholders, agency officials said. The timeline for implementation of the changes is still uncertain.
Unsatisfied with the proposed changes, a bipartisan group of senators last week introduced several pieces of legislation that propose changes to the drug review process, including reorganizing the FDA, requiring drug manufacturers to disclose the results of all clinical trials involving humans, and restricting consumer advertising, the Jan. 31 New York Times reported.

Gritty air raises risk of heart disease, death in older women
Long-term exposure to fine particulate air pollution increases the risk of heart disease and death in older, post-menopausal women, a new study found.
The study, published in the Feb. 1 New England Journal of Medicine, examined 65,893 postmenopausal women age 50-79 who were enrolled in the Women's Health Initiative from 1994-1998. The women had no history of cardiovascular disease. The authors assessed each woman's exposure to air pollutants using the monitor nearest her residence, and hazard ratios were estimated for the first cardiovascular event. The women were studied from 1994-1998 with a median follow-up of six years.
A total of 1,826 women had one or more fatal or nonfatal cardiovascular events as of August 2003. Each increase of 10 millionths of a gram per cubic meter of air was associated with a 76% increase in the risk of death from cardiovascular disease, and a 24% increase in the risk of a cardiovascular event. Results were adjusted for demographic factors like income as well as health factors, such as smoking status and diabetes.
Results suggest that the EPA's average annual limit of fine particulates, which is 15 millionths of a gram for every cubic meter of air, should be lower, said a pollution specialist interviewed by the New York Times.

Clinical news
Annals: More very elderly starting dialysis, but survival rate low
The Feb. 6 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine includes a study of very elderly patients on dialysis and an article about diagnosing sleep apnea without an overnight in the sleep lab. The full text is available to College members and subscribers online.
Increased number of very elderly beginning dialysis but only 46% alive one year later. The number of octogenarians (people aged 80 to 89) and nonagenarians (people 90 to 99) who began dialysis increased from 7,054 people in 1996 to 13,577 people in 2003, according to a new study. Overall, one-year survival rates for patients on dialysis did not materially change from 1996 to 2003, remaining at about 50%. Survival rates for these very elderly are substantially lower than those previously reported. Researchers used data from a large national kidney data system. Risk for death was strongly associated with older age, inability to walk (nonambulatory status) and the number of chronic conditions a person had. Authors suggest that physicians, patients and families considering placing an older person on dialysis should discuss realistic estimates of survival, expected quality of life and the patient's values. The authors noted that end-stage renal disease is a reflection of underlying multi-organ system dysfunction and may be better managed by a palliative approach.
Sleep apnea can be diagnosed without overnights in a sleep lab. Exclusively ambulatory techniques and equipment were as successful at identifying and treating sleep apnea as the current method of polysomnography, which requires several supervised overnight stays in a sleep laboratory. The ambulatory method involved identifying high-probability patients with a standardized clinical assessment and at-home portable sleep monitoring and auto-titration of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Sixty-eight patients with high likelihood of having sleep apnea were assigned to groups that received polysomnography or the sleep tests at home. Both groups received continuous positive airway pressure at home through a CPAP machine with face mask and hose. After three months, the groups had the same results on three outcome measures, and those who received the initial diagnosis at home were more likely to adhere to the use of the CPAP treatment.
More accurate stroke diagnosis with MRI than CT
MRI scans are a better tool for diagnosing acute stroke than CT scans, a recent study found. The more sensitive diagnosis provided by MRIs showed superior results in detecting acute ischemic stroke, the most common form of stroke.
Researchers followed 356 patients with suspected stroke who arrived consecutively at the NIH Stroke Center. Stroke specialists conducted emergency clinical assessments with all patients before initiating both CT and MRI scans. When the scans were reviewed by four experts, MRIs revealed acute ischemic stroke in 164 of 356 patients, compared with 35 out of the 356 revealed by CT scans.
The results show that immediate non-contrast MRI is about five times more sensitive and twice as accurate as immediate non-contrast CT for diagnosing ischemic stroke, but the scans are equally effective in the diagnosis of acute intracranial hemorrhage, according to the NIH, which conducted the study. The study was published in the Jan. 27 issue of The Lancet.
Based on the study's findings, MRI should become the preferred imaging technique for diagnosing patients with acute stroke, although further research is needed to determine whether advanced contrast enhanced CT techniques can produce the same level of clinical information more quickly and with less expense, study authors said.

Quality improvement
CMS pilot shows P4P slightly improves hospital quality
A recent study analyzing results from a CMS pay-for-performance (P4P) demonstration project concluded that performance bonuses modestly improved the quality of care at participating hospitals.
Researchers compared results from the 207 hospitals involved in the P4P pilot with 406 hospitals that participated in a national public-reporting initiative that did not include financial incentives. The P4P group showed greater improvement in all composite quality measures, including heart failure, acute myocardial infarction and pneumonia.
After adjusting for confounders, the overall differential between the P4P hospitals and the other group was 2.9%. The study was published in the Feb. 1 New England Journal of Medicine.
The study also found that baseline performance was inversely related to improvement--the lowest-rated P4P hospitals showed an average improvement of 16.1% while the highest-rated improved just 1.9%. Study authors concluded that additional research is needed to determine whether the benefits of P4P outweigh the costs and whether different incentives would stimulate more improvement.
An accompanying editorial recommended that CMS adopt a series of regional models to explore the effect of differing levels of incentives and formulas for payment as opposed to instituting a single new payment system for Medicare.
The New England Journal of Medicine article and editorial are online.
Community grants for treatment of chronic disease
Several communities across the country received grant funding last week aimed at improving care for people with chronic diseases.
Aligning Forces for Quality, a program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, awarded a total of $14 million to groups in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Grand Rapids, Mich., Humboldt, Calif., Kansas City, Mo., Madison, Wis., Portland, Maine, Portland, Ore., Western New York and York, Pa. They join four pilot communities announced in 2006– Detroit, Memphis, Minneapolis-St. Paul and Seattle– in the three-year program.
Foundation officials said the grant program's ultimate goal is to better understand how local market forces can work together to drive and sustain improved outcomes for the chronically ill. To that end, the program is looking for the communities to make incremental progress in three key areas:
- Public reporting
- Consumer engagement
- Quality improvement
The communities will each receive grants of up to $600,000 to use over three years for planning, convening, coordination and infrastructure development. In addition to their grant awards, communities can also receive technical assistance.

Watch Live: White House Correspondents' Dinner | Watch Stanley Cup Playoffs: Blackhawks vs. Predators
Central Intelligence Agency Director John Brennan arrives to deliver remarks at a Council on Foreign Relations forum on the "challenges and opportunities for the American intelligence Community and reflect on his first year as CIA director" in Washington March 11, 2014. REUTERS/Yuri Gripas (UNITED STATES - Tags: POLITICS CRIME LAW)
Should CIA Director John Brennan be fired? That's a question that Democratic senators aren't speculating on – yet – following serious allegations from Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein that the agency spied on a computer network used by panel staffers.
Lawmakers appeared guarded Wednesday when asked about Brennan's future; they're likely waiting on a more extensive response from the director. (On Tuesday, he denied the unlawful spying charges and urged critics to await the results of an ongoing Justice Department inquiry.)
Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., who has served on the Intelligence Committee since 2001 and voted to confirm Brennan last March, said "What's important to me now is that Director Brennan answer the questions that the committee through the chair has sent him."
Putting the Senate's friction with Brennan in the larger context of congressional mistrust of the CIA and the other intelligence agencies, Wyden noted that it had been one year to the day since (Director of National Intelligence) James Clapper "told the American people that the government doesn't collect any type of data at all on millions of Americans. That obviously was wrong. Since that time, he or his leaders have given at least five different explanations for the answer he gave."
"The president said – and I agree – that all of this only works if Congress can do effective oversight over the executive branch," Wyden said. "The Congress cannot do effective oversight over the executive branch if the intelligence leadership again and again isn't straight with the Congress and the American people, and you have instances where it is difficult for a committee to carry out an appropriate inquiry."
Another Intelligence Committee Democrat, Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia would say only "the committee is reviewing this and will have more to say shortly."
Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., also on the panel, wouldn't talk to reporters on the CIA topic Wednesday after having done at least two TV interviews Tuesday voicing his lack of confidence in Brennan.
On Rachel Maddow's MSNBC program Tuesday night Udall said, "I've lost confidence in Director Brennan, particularly because he won't acknowledge the misdeeds and misconduct of the CIA. As Sen. Feinstein in her speech today pointed out, about six weeks ago, he acknowledged to Sen. Feinstein and Sen. Chambliss that the CIA had, in fact, gone into the computers of our intelligence committee staff. Today, he denied it. I don't understand why he won't come clean. That's why I`ve lost confidence in Director Brennan."
For the senators who do not serve on the Intelligence Committee, assessing whether Brennan and his agency are responding to their Senate overseers is difficult.
Senators who aren't on the committee have to rely on their 15 colleagues who do serve on the panel.
"The Intelligence Committee is closed group, so what they share in that group is kept in that group. Why the CIA feels they cannot share the information, or be asked questions and not be forthright is a problem," said Sen. Mark Begich, D-Alaska, who doesn't serve on the panel.
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., also not an Intelligence Committee member, said, "Obviously they're very serious allegations that need to be investigated and we need to determine whether what Sen. Feinstein said was accurate and if it is, I think action needs to be taken."
She said she wouldn't speak to the issue of her confidence in Brennan until senators get answers from the CIA to Feinstein's allegations.
Begich put the Brennan furor in the bigger privacy context. "I'm no big fan of the NSA, the FISA, the Patriot Act and now this just tells me more that there are far-reaching efforts by the government to go far beyond the law and their ability to look at things for national security."
He added, "Maybe the CIA got a little confused -- but there are three equal branches here and they should not forget that."

Every January is the same for the Ploessels. At the beginning of the month, Chapman swimming and diving is in full swing. Dennis Ploessel is the head coach, while his son, Eric Ploessel, is his assistant coach.
But when women's water polo season commences towards the end of the month, traditional roles break away faster than a swimmer's first stroke. The son takes the reigns as head coach and the father becomes his assistant coach.
"It's fun, being able to tell him what to do," Eric said, joking about his father. "I wouldn't be able to do that when I was a teenager."
The two have been coaching together at Chapman since 2000. Dennis is in his 18th season coaching swimming and diving at Chapman.
Bryan Ploessel, Dennis' other son, has helped train the water polo goalies as an assistant coach for both the men's and women's squads since 2005. Eric and Dennis are also head coach and assistant, respectively, for men's water polo.
The pool has always been their sacred space; it connects them.
All three live within a 10-mile radius of one another, close enough to enjoy their occasional Meatloaf Monday after practice.
"We value the time we have with our family," Dennis said. "It's how it's always been and always will be."
Each coach has a different role during practice. In swimming, Dennis works with the sprint swimmers, while Eric works with the distance swimmers. In water polo, Dennis and Bryan train the goalies.
But in crunch-time of a heated match, when one coach wants to do something one way and the other wants to do it another way, which coach gets the final call?
"If I think our goalie is getting shot up and needs to come out, I might say something (to Eric), 'Do you want to get another goalie warmed up?'" said Dennis, an assistant for water polo. "But Eric has to go by his gut feeling out there. He's the head coach."
Most of Eric's game-time decisions, however, in some way have been informed by his father's advice over the years.
Eric and Bryan both learned the intricacies of swim and water polo by watching Dennis coach at Cypress College and Los Alamitos High School. Dennis didn't push his sons into aquatics; they were drawn to the water on their own.
"A lot of people grow up going camping and things like that, but we grew up on the pool deck," Bryan said. "It's part of our blood. It's just who we are."
Dennis coached his sons as well. Whether one had a good match or the other had a poor outing, the Ploessels left it at the pool. The drive home and the dinner table were reserved for other topics.

Power transition theory
The Power transition theory is a theory about the cyclical nature of war, in relation to the power in international relations.[1][2][3]
Created by A.F.K. Organski, and originally published in his textbook, World Politics (1958), power transition theory today describes international politics as a hierarchy, with 4 degrees of power between states. The objective of the theory is to investigate the cyclic condition of wars, and how transition of power in terms of machtpolitik affect the occurrence of these wars.
The principal predictive power of the theory is in the likelihood of war and the stability of alliances.[1] War is most likely, of longest duration, and greatest magnitude, when a challenger to the dominant power enters into approximate parity with the dominant state and is dissatisfied with the existing system. Similarly, alliances are most stable when the parties to the alliance are satisfied with the system structure.[3] This leads to the view that when the balance of power is unstable (i.e. one or two nations have taken a dominant role in geopolitics), the likelihood of war is greater. According to Organski:
An even distribution of political, economic, and military capabilities between contending groups of states is likely to increase the probability of war; peace is preserved best when there is an imbalance of national capabilities between disadvantaged and advantaged nations; the aggressor will come from a small group of dissatisfied strong countries; and it is the weaker, rather than the stronger; power that is most likely to be the aggressor.[4]
There are further nuances to the theory: for instance, the sources of power transition vary in their volatility, population change being the least volatile and political capacity (defined as the ability of the government to control resources internal to the country) the most volatile.[3]
Employing the metaphor of a pyramid, Organski illustrates how there are many weak but few strong states. The very strongest of states is called the "dominant power". This is the one with the largest proportion of power resources. This is commonly defined as the possession of resources. These resources include population, territory, natural resources, military forces, economic size, and political stability, among others. In addition to this dominant and "hegemonic" state, there are also some "great powers," a collection of potential rivals to the dominant state and who share in the tasks of maintaining the system and controlling the allocation of power resources. Then there are some "middle powers" of regional significance similar to the dominant state, but unable to challenge the dominant state or the system structure, and "small powers," the rest.
These dominant powers, or hegemons, commonly arise and use their power to create a set of political and economic structures and norms of behaviour that enhance the stability of the system at the same time that they advance their own security. In other words, this state is interested in maintaining the "status quo" of the international system. Organski and Jacek Kugler defined status quo states as those that have participated in designing "the rules of the game" and stand to benefit from these rules. Challengers, or "revisionist states", want "a new place for themselves in the international society" commensurate with their power. Revisionist states express a "general dissatisfaction" with their "position in the system", and they have a "desire to redraft the rules by which relations among nations work".
Since the international status quo is defended by the dominant power, only the very strongest of great powers can plausibly threaten to change the status quo. The argument accompanying the power pyramid implies that only the dissatisfied state is roughly equal in power to the dominant state should it perceive that it has the willingness for war. Thus, power transition theory's war hypothesis is that wars among great powers are most likely when a power transition occurs between the dominant state and the dissatisfied challenger.
Such a war can be termed a "hegemonic war". The most important consequence of a hegemonic war is that it changes the system in accordance with the new international distribution of power; it brings about a reordering of the basic components of the system. Victory and defeat re-establish an unambiguous hierarchy of prestige congruent with the new distribution of power in the system. The war determines who will govern the international system, and whose interests will be primarily served by the new international order.
Contrary to the traditional "Balance of power theory", with its power parity hypothesis, which claim that an equality in power is conductive to peace, "Power transition theory" reach the opposite conclusion claiming the probability of war between the rising challenger and the dominant state peaks near the point of power transition between them. Power transition theory also diverges from traditional "balance of power" theories in asserting that states can achieve growth in the amount of power held by the state based on internal economic, population, and political developments rather than through forging new alliances with other states in the system, making the power transition model more dynamic than pre-existing models.[5] Prior to attaining parity, the rising, dissatisfied great power has little incentive to attack a dominant power that is still viewed as too powerful. The challenger essentially lacks the capability to do something about its dissatisfaction. Long after surpassing the once-dominant power, the rising, dissatisfied great power no longer has much incentive to attack a now inferior, former rival. Thus, the greatest risk of warfare is when the two states have attained rough equality in power (parity), after one state that is dissatisfied with the international order has caught up with a formerly more powerful state (overtaking) that was most responsible for creating the status quo. According to Rapkin and Thompson (2003), this is the dangerous zone of power transition. The probability of conflict between the dissatisfied great power and the dominant power will be greatest when the relative capabilities of these two states are characterized by parity—the "zone of contention and probable war" wherein the ratio of the dissatisfied great power's and the dominant state's capabilities lies between 4:5 and 6:5, according to Tammen et al. (2000).
Organski organized the world into four types of states. The transition of power occurs between a dominant state and a great power (in most cases), leading to a war.[1][3]
- a "dominant" state, the one with the largest proportion of power resources (population, productivity, and political capacity meaning coherence and stability). In modern days such a state is often termed a superpower, or in the case of unipolarity, a hyperpower. Prior to the Cold War, no term was used universally to describe such a power.
- "great powers," a collection of potential rivals to the dominant state and who share in the tasks of maintaining the system and controlling the allocation of power resources. Great powers tend to exhibit power projection beyond their geographic region.
- "middle powers" of regional significance similar to the dominant state, but unable to challenge the dominant state or the system structure
- "small powers," the remainder of nation states, which possess little power in their geographic region and have notably insignificant influence and projection outside of it.
While Organski's hierarchy initially referred only to the entire international system, Douglas Lemke later expanded the hierarchy model to include regional hierarchies, arguing that each region contains its own dominant, great, and small powers. Thus regional hierarchies exist embedded into the larger international hierarchy.[6]
Historical application[edit]
The theory leads to the long cycle theory of war and seeks to explain trends between warring states in the past 500 years. The general trend is that a nation achieves hegemonic power and then is challenged by a great power. This leads to a war which, in the past, has created a transition between the two powers. Eugene R. Wittkopf explores past wars and their relation to Power Transition theory in his book World Politics: Trend and Transformation. He explains this using George Modelski's Seapower Concentration Index.[2]
At 1518, Portugal assumed a hegemonic position in world politics. However, as the Netherlands (which was experiencing the Dutch Golden Age) rose in power, a series of struggles led to the destruction of Spain's power and a transition to Dutch hegemony. Dutch hegemony was brought into question again in 1688 with the Wars of Louis XIV, which resulted in what is referred to as the "Britain I Cycle", the Napoleonic Wars interrupted this cycle and questioned the hegemony Britain possessed. However, Britain's victory resulted in maintenance of power and the "Britain II Cycle".[2] This cycle ended with the World Wars and Wittkopf shows the period of 1914-1945 as one of particular turbulence in which no power maintained hegemony, even after the Treaty of Versailles.[2] After the second World War, a drastic increase in seapower concentration by the United States was experienced and it (along with the Soviet Union) became the world's first superpowers.[2]
In general, hegemonic periods last approximately 60 to 90 years and conflicts which result in a period stabilization of power distribution last approximately 20 years.[2] This can be explained through war-weariness and the tendency (although this was broken in the first half of the 20th century) for nations not to engage themselves in another conflict after being involved in a power transition.[2]

Why doesn't Starboard respond to customer feedback?
I have been trying to contact Starboard for about 2 months now. I have been unable to find a phone number anywhere for them. *Does anyone know if they have a phone number?* I have left them feedback on their website (contact us) multiple times asking them to contact me either via email or telephone and they have not responded to any of my requests (even when I've stated they have not responded to my earlier requests). I'm not even an irate customer, I just wanted to find out some answers to a few simple questions. Now my question is, from a business perspective, is how come they ignore the feedback on their website?
I'd be interested in knowing what the foul-up is here. As a person trained in business, it floors me that a successful company (assumption) could be so oblivious. Man! Customer Service 101!! |

+1 for Baby Jogger, used from 6 months to about the same time as AP above. I bought mine new but did sell on Ebay and yes, it did hold its value.
Wow AP, that was a find on freecycle
Another +1 for the BabyJogger (Mk II).
I would like a running push chair that I can start using from about 1 month old. Can anyone recommend anything, as Baby Joggers are recommended from 12 months. Thanks, Sam
Most running pushchairs, Baby Joggers included recommend that the baby must have good control of their head muscles.
The babyjogger site recommends use from 6 months on roads and 12 months on trails if that's any use....
I love sausages. So I might buy a baby jogger.

Viewing support from the practitioner angle – from inside us as practitioners – where are we on this spectrum ourselves relative to facing ourselves with respect to our orientation to the horizontal or vertical? Do we surrender into Stillness daily, and have we developed a profound respect for the immense power of the descending current as it reveals to us our precise 'self-map' in navigating our process of self-inquiry; Who am I 'really,' warts and all? As opposed to who I want to be but am not yet. After all, as practitioners, it is our responsibility to fierce-heartedly face our selves in terms of what is our orientation – horizontal (ego), or vertical (Stillness and Pure Breath of Love) – and to clearly recognize our capacities for 'being with' – and feeling – intensity and intimacy. However, it is only through a compassionate self-disposition, that we learn to trust, to relax, open, surrender into Stillness, and fall into the arms of Love. This is how we permit Pure Breath of Love to lovingly suffuse, illuminate, and unite with all aspects of our bodymind as a whole – all the way into our cells….until Body is Love.
We know it is 'facing ourselves' and catching our ego's strategies of avoidance or grasping when we are feeling intensity, intimacy, Stillness, and The Love. This is the most important, difficult, uncomfortable, and humbling aspect of our descending current practice. We painfully realize how our fear and lack of trust prevent us from letting Stillness have us so utterly that Pure Breath of Love can seep into our hidden self-limiting aspects of ego. Repeatedly falling into Love's Arms loosens ego's control strategies, and reveal to us our covert manipulations by which we feed on others libido 'out there' 'to get' from. Love unveils the truth of who we are: our bodily confession.
We know how challenging it is to feelingly 'be with' very uncomfortable intensity and intimacy that arises while Love is 'dusting' our most unsavory lifestyle patterns, bringing them into the light for us to see and feel while she lovingly breathes into our hidden corners. However, this work is essential if we desire to be present to a client undergoing this same process.
The good news is we do not need to know what to do. Rather, it is by relaxing, receiving, trusting, opening, falling back, into the Arms of Love and let Love take over: The substance of Love – as non-separate matter – does the rest. Love brings up our particular aspects of recoil that separate us from The Love that are hidden from us. If we can simply receive what is true about us – know thyself – and accept it as 'the given' without shame, by standing in it in our vulnerability, as it is (whether we like it or not) then, Love will lead the way home to Wholeness. (Here are links on Vulnerability and Shame):
The potency of the descending current of Pure Breath of Love possess a particularly deep 'scrubbing action' that locates all our 'hidden dust.' The scrubbing process is exquisitely potent because it is comprised of Dynamic Stillness, each tonal component of the tidal inner body flows of the Breath of Life, Spanda – the sacred tremor, and a mysterious non-separate matter that combine together to precisely configure the specific alchemy that reveal all hidden aspects of us that avoid facing the truth of ourselves (What are we really? With respect to opening to Love – warts and all – without our projections of ourselves?). The dusting also illuminates how deeply we recoil from Stillness and Love, and reveals to us the way we function in life relative to avoiding intensity, intimacy, paradox, and utter surrender to Pure Breath of Love. Nope, the descending current practice is not pretty, nor fun, or easy, with regard to 'know thyself.' This is not for the feint of heart because the process never ends, although we get more comfortable trusting, being with, relaxing into, opening to Stillness, living in 'don't know,' and feeling and accepting what we are – as we are.
In summary, at Dynamic Stillness and Sacred Body Rites we inquire into how Pure Breath of Love forms a precise alchemical mix – of cranial wave, fluid tide, long tide, Dynamic Stillness, Pure Breath of Love, and non-separate matter – that specifically completes, makes whole our personal unique human bodily incarnation and gift – through utter union of Body with Consciousness and Love. This function of the descending current is the prime directive of Pure Breath of Love in the present time of human evolution.
The evolutionary process of the descending current can be observed while Pure Breath of Love so fully incarnates into our humanness that the 'parts' unite and become complete as one harmonious Whole, culminating in a conscious realization that Body IS Love.
No longer is it a question that has been asked for the last 8,000 years: how can we transcend the human, to rise above ourselves, our ego, above our pain, faults, discomforts old relational patterns, our desires, and eros, and catch the ascending current and become one with the Divine? It is now rather, how can we let Divine Consciousness that expresses as The Love descend into the body and become fully humanly divine? (See Saniel Bonder under "Writings" – Further Reading – on the Dynamic Stillness site). The culmination of our Dynamic Stillness Biodynamic professional training – of irrevocable union with the descending current – distinguishes it from the other biodynamic schools. In essence, as certified practitioners of Biodynamic Cranial Touch, we endeavor to live our lives bodily-at-one with Pure Breath of Love in seamless Wholeness, and in devout service of others on this same journey.
As mentioned, the previous biodynamic 'map' we explored in my book Stillness, had more to do with the ascending current tidal enfoldments: cranial wave, fluid tide, and long tide to Dynamic Stillness. This is the mapped 'ground' upon which we explore a 'mapless' domain that begins in Dynamic Stillness and beyond, where Pure Breath of Love emerges, descends into, implodes, and unites with every cell of the body. Here, we bodily realize via the descending current, expressed as Pure Breath of Love : Love comes back for itself: you – and utterly unites you with the resurrected erotic forces of body, which restores to you your natural state of Wholeness (which is utter bodily union with The Love).
To repeat: This Inherent Evolutionary Process involves trust, facing yourself, and being with what you are – as you are, relaxing into Stillness and opening to each and every separating aspect down to the molecules of every cell – all the way to union of body with infinite Consciousness and Love. Again, Pure Breath of Love alchemically combines the elements – earth, water, air, fire, ether – with Dynamic Stillness to form an ever-renewing, unending, dynamic alchemical substance of non-seperating matter – The Love – that is precisely formulated to lovingly resurrect your every inertial part, restoring it to wholeness in such a way that, eventually, no bodily resistance to Love remains possible.
To fall back, surrender, and utterly open your body – and life – and further: to vulnerably offer yourself to The Love – the force that made all creation that emanates out of Dynamic Stillness – is the evolutionary imperative of Pure Breath of Love. The Love is the only force that can return to us the trust and bodily relaxation required to surrender and fall into the Arms of Love, so we can let what we are 'just be as we are' be – as our natural state. Subsequently, it is from this disposition – utter orientation to Pure Breath of Love – that we begin an advanced exploration into aspects of touch as Sacred body Rites: 'Moving Stillness' – as presence, speech, hands-on contacts, hand flow to the skin with oils, and movement – that are precise skillful responses to 'what is' in each bodily moment. You can vary your expression of touch spontaneously as your client's inner body wisdom calls it forth, based on her specific requirements and her authentic boundaries, arising from the Wisdom of the Whole, rather than from her 'tissue boundaries' established by ego fears, and control strategies, that are based on past trauma or future projection. This culminates as Sacred Body Rites – a practice that is utterly free of contrived methodologies in a session, but, rather, the practitioner's service remains open and unformed moment by moment.
